Synopsis Death of a Six-Foot Teddy Bear by : Sharon Dunn

Another murder mystery for the Bargain Hunters Network–only this time, one of them is a suspect! Ginger and her husband, Earl, are in for a wild ride in Calamity, Nevada, along with the other BHN ladies–college student Kindra, mother-of-four Suzanne, and sassy senior Arleta. They came to town for the Invention Expo and some outlet shopping, but instead they endure lost luggage, broken air conditioning, and a long line of people angry at hotel owner Dustin Clydell. With the Invention Expo and the Squirrel Lovers’ convention both in town, the Wind-Up Hotel has somehow overbooked. Before the night is over, a man has been found dead in a teddy bear costume, the Invention Expo has been canceled, Binky the water-skiing squirrel has gone missing…and the authorities want to talk to one of the BHN ladies! What else could possibly go wrong? Once again, the Bargain Hunters Network swings into sleuth mode to solve the murder–and this time, clear one of their own. Along the way, Ginger discovers something even better than a bargain.

Synopsis Ebony Women Clothed in Scarlet by : Dr. Ariel Sylvester

This intergenerational memoir introduces four generations of Christian, Black women who live in Chicago. The author describes lessons she's learned from her great grandmother, grandmother, and mother that helped her navigate life from her early years through her twenties. It was their strength, courage, and ability to dream that helped her as a young, homeschooled, Black child of a deceased father and single mother who hails from a low-income, poverty-stricken, drug-infested, and gang and gun violence ridden neighborhood grow up to become an educator at her childhood elementary school.

In the process, realizing that no matter what life brings, God always has a plan and it is important to trust in Him and have faith in His plan.
